How to obtain the title of large family

If you have recently discovered that you are a large family and that, as such, you are entitled to a title and benefits, you are probably a bit lost and want to know exactly how you should obtain your title. Although at first it may seem very complicated, you should know that it is an extremely simple process ; In addition, they must give you an official title or card for each of the members of your large family, child by child. Of course, the number will be the same for all of you.

But let’s go step by step. The first thing you should know is that the large family title is ” an official document, valid throughout the national territory, which certifies the status of a large family, once the requirements that give rise to such recognition have been met .” In case you have doubts as to whether you are a large family or not, you should know that it is understood by a large family in which the children exceed the parents (whether they are common children or not). There are many more categories of large families, as we explained in a previous article. It depends on the number of people that make up the family, the degree of dependence of that number of relatives …

YOU MUST GO TO THE DELEGATION OF EQUALITY, OR TO THE CITY COUNCIL

Once you are clear that you are a large family, you must go to the City Council of your city or town, or to the Territorial Delegation of Equality, Health and Social Policies. The usual thing is that you decide to go to the Town Hall; If so, you should keep in mind that you should go to the one that corresponds to the place where you and your family are living at that time.

Before embarking on the adventure of going to the City Hall, you should know that there is a documentation that you are going to ask for. If you take it all prepared, you will save yourself from taking more trips! And we all know how annoying it is to have to return several times to the same place because we were missing a certain role. So let’s try to avoid it.

You will have to fill out an application , which you will find on the website of your city council (the application will not vary much, but you should look for the one that corresponds to your autonomous community or your city). In addition, you must present a photocopy of the DNI , NIE or passport of the person requesting it (that is, yours) and of your spouse, if you have one. In addition, if your child or children are over fourteen years old, it is mandatory that they have a DNI, so you will also have to present it.

To this you must add the photocopy of the family book , as well as a responsible income statement , which must have been completed by all those members of your family who are over sixteen years old. Finally, in general, you will need an updated registration certificate in which absolutely all the members of the large family appear; If you do not have a registration certificate, you should find another way to prove that you really live together.

One caveat: all copies you submit must have been certified . If you have not compiled them, you must accompany them with the original so that the office in question can certify it, something they will do without any inconvenience. There are cases in which you will have to present exceptional documentation ; For example, if there is a widowhood and it does not appear in the family book, you must present the death certificate. In the event of a divorce , the copy of the court resolution and even the regulatory agreement that has been approved in the trial.

If there are children over 21 years old, and up to 25 years old , you must also present an official registration that they are doing university studies, or higher, or professional training, with proof of payment. If there is a disability, it would also be necessary to present a certificate proving it.

From there, they will give you your large family title . As we have already pointed out, the number will be the same for the whole family, because it will represent your family unit. And everything will be done!
